Tore apart my new shortblock, ly6 bored to 4.065
So I bought a 6.0 Cast iron LY6, Got it bored to 4.065, I bought a set of LS3 pistons, Rods, and Crank. I got the Crank polished and Ground down .010 on Rods and Main Journals. I learned the hard way to check Connecting rods for Roundness. I ordered .010 tighter Clevite bearings, put the shortblock together, pistons and all, however out of curiosity i pulled some rod caps off (I'm strange like that) I notice slight scoring Marks, which lead me to believe that the connecting rods I bought are out of round. Now I want to get my rods honed .002. Anyone know what bearing I would need to maintain Great oil pressure. ? So I need. .002 OD with .010 Tighter Bearing. I searched and KCS said before that
1776-P-10 is what I need but I cant find them anywhere. Also with honing the connecting rods .002, with the use of a .002 OD bearing and .010 ID bearing I'd be able to use Arp rod bolts no problem right?

It seems the part number changed. I bought these just recently for an LS2 I’m building.
